Where are you located?
What kind of roaches?
What's the weather like?
 
FWIW, I'm in Texas, and don't yet own bees, but when dry summer weather
comes, wood roaches migrate to places where they can find shelter and
moisture. They are large, reddish-to-dark-brown and they fly. During dry
spells they'll come into the house, but normally they'd rather be in a nice
moist rotten log outdoors.
